16 Therefore we do not despair, but even if our outward man is being destroyed, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day.
17 For our momentary light affliction is working out for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory,
18 while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are for a season, but the things which are not seen last forever.
